Electric Breast Pump with Storage Bags

To express breast milk with an electric pump, you need to:

• Wash your hands to ensure they are clean.
• Find a quiet place to pump and relax.
• Assembly your cleaned up electric breast pump unit.
• Massage each breast gently before attaching the pump.
• Start slowly with the suction on the lowest setting.
• Pump for at least 15 minutes, or until the milk flow slows down.
• Store the expressed milk in a clean container
• While expressing man storing several units at different time, its good to label each with the date and time.

The advantage of using an electric breast pump is that:

• It does the work for you, and
• Takes less time than manual breast pumps

Expressing means squeezing milk out of your breasts, by hand or with a pump, to store and feed to your baby later

Some of the benefits of using an electric breast pump include:

• Efficiently pumping breast milk to use for feedings.
• Providing relief from engorgement when you’re away from your baby.
• Time-saving, as electric pumps draw milk more quickly and more efficiently than manual pumps.
• Allowing the nursing mother to store breast milk to ensure that the baby enjoys breastfeeding, even when she’s not around.
• Operating fast and allowing the user to have a free hand that would otherwise be used in a manual breast pump.
